39 The HEARTH Wood and Crafts Thrift Shop The HEARTH Wood and Crafts Thrift Shop will offer for sale raw materials as well as finished crafts and products made from the materials obtained through the Wood Recycling Program. Raw materials can include: insulation, nails, used boards and logs (made into boards and firewood). Together with the CLC, HEARTH Cycle and the HEARTH Wood and Crafts Thrift Shop, all of our efforts as individuals and as a community will work together to create and share a "common wealth" which will not only support and underwrite activities and facilities but enrich all participants, the surrounding community and our most precious resources ... people. REACHING OUT FOR THE COMMON WEALTH This is what HEARTH and The Creative Learning Center are all about. And ... you are invited and welcome in every way to be a part of it. All in all, the facility and its activities will be as dynamic and rewarding as the degree of our involvement and utilization. If we desire much of it, much will be returned ... so much that it may stand as a model for more Centers like it all across the country. But, more importantly , we -- much like the original natives of North America -- may find new positive life experiences by heeding our need to reach out to, receive from and give to other people and another culture , as is reflected in this the verse of this young Navajo poet : Istand upon mymiraclehill, Wondering of theyonderdistancc Thinking, When willlreacb Them?
